Filming By Daisy

yesterday Tolu and I managed to do some more filming, We filmed 4 of our frineds shooting into the goal in different angles and using different shots. We did a low angle shot of one girl sweeping the ball into the goal. There shots were a bit tricky as it was nearly getting dark and we had to film quickly and the camera ran out of battery towards the end. Now I am just editing.

Company Logo by Tolu

We company logo i created previously, although happy with it when it was intially created, Daisy and I have decided that we dont actually like it. We feel like we can together create something that reflects us more so than our previous company logo.

I decided to look on the internet for exmaples of company logos and i found them to be much more suffisticated than my version of a company logo making our decison to change it much more infomred and the right decision.

Editing and Creating more Titles by Tolu

I went back and watched a few more trailers paying a considerable amount of attention to our trailer and realised that at the end of every trailer there is a title that shows all the people involved in the making of the movie and the company logos. I decided to copy this image into a word document and printed it out. This enabled me to get a idea of what was actually written on the titles. This included the names of all of the main characters the Directors and the film title and aat the very bottom, there is the website for the film.

Using the printed version, i was able to create my own version of this. I incorporated universal pictures as the co-production company, found their logo and made it balck and white and placed it in a similar position to that of the real thing. I decided our film was to be called 'Chances' and incorporated this into the titles and created a website for our film. I then imported this image into the permiere emliments as part of my trailer ready to be placed at the end once it is completed.

I decided to create some more titles to aid the telling of our story in photoshop. We maintained the same font and tried to make it as realistic as possible. I did this on photoshop and then imported this image into our trailer on premiere elements.

All we have left to do is to find the music for our trailer and a little bit of filming to do. The filming shall not take us long but finding the correct kind of music is prooving very difficult too find as in most of the trailers we have seen for sporting romance such as 'Bend it like Beckham, there is one track playing throughout the trailer regarless of what was happening. In our opinion we beleive the music should reflect the situation in the trailer, for example of we were showing a sad event, the music should reflect the atmosphere we were trying to create. Furthermore, finding another track that would work for the entire trailer is prooving very difficult so i think we may try to find music to match the events occuring the trailer so we expect to have at least 2 tracks.

Feed Back by Daisy

Today I managied to show my class my trailer and got some useful feedback. They though that the speed of the trailer and the changing of shots was appropiate for a Trailer and the sports romance genre. They commented on the fact that my titles may not all have the same size font, so I have to change that. They would like to see some other shots of the protagonist around the school campus, reflecting her day to day life. I will take some shots of her with her friends and in lessons. This is because the audience thought that they didnt know enough about the girl to understand the basic idea of the trailer. We are still to decide our music however.
